UCT Online High School uses an integrated approach to delivering science practicals for internal assessments that utilises video demonstrations, online simulations and at-home practicals within a fun, safe and controlled environment. Learners will never be required to attend a physical venue to conduct science practicals nor acquire expensive and potentially dangerous equipment to use at home. All practicals to be conducted within the home environment will use materials listed in our stationery and equipment list, and/or cheap and easy-to-source materials from a local supermarket or online store. Additionally, learners will be briefed on the practicals they will be conducting before the module where the practical is placed, allowing the learner’s primary caregiver to source the required materials well in advance. The methods used to deliver science practicals adhere to the Curriculum Assessment Policies Statements (CAPS) outlined by the Department of Basic Education (DBE). We aim to equip learners with the practical skills required to prepare them for future studies in the sciences through the use of a fun, engaging, and safe environment.
According to the Department of Education’s Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement, the Physical Education (PE) component of Life Orientation aims to develop high school learners' physical well-being, knowledge of movement skills in traditional and non-traditional sports, and safety issues in physical activity.
High school learners will be encouraged to perform a range of engaging activities that aim to develop an active and healthy lifestyle. High school learners will capture their physical activities through videos and photographs, and monitor their heart rates. This evidence will then be submitted to our Learning Management System (Online Campus), enabling our trained Learning Facilitators to view these submissions on a weekly basis, provide feedback, and assign a participation mark. Activities that contribute to formal grades will be awarded marks.
Through these fun, practical lessons, we help high school learners develop communication skills, creativity, and critical thinking, as well as find an appreciation of, and enjoyment in, regular physical activity.
